How to Activate Dark Mode on Zendesk

check


Zendesk does not have a dark mode setting natively – which sucks! Especially for those of you who spend more than 8 hours a day on your Zendesk dashboard.

To solve this, I found a couple of browser extensions that work pretty well for this purpose:

  1. Midnight Lizard:
  2. Dark Reader:

I also created a short video on how to go about using these extensions:

Something that also works is:

  • Open a Chrome browser, then enter the following address in your URL bar: chrome://flags/#enable-force-dark
  • This will bring up a hidden Chrome settings menu and the Force Dark Mode option. This menu is a long one, so if the URL doesn’t bring you right to the Dark Mode setting, use the Control/Command F shortcut then type dark mode into the search bar to find it on the page.
  • Go to the drop-down menu next to Force Dark Mode and select Enabled.
  • At the bottom, hit the Relaunch button to restart your browser.

The output here is the same as the browser extensions. But the only problem is that it applies dark mode to ALL your webpages – which is not ideal.

To conclude, I recommend using either Midnight Lizard or Dark Reader for this purpose.

Hope you found this useful! 🙂
